Wed, 26 Jun 2013 23:51:50 +0000mikewsmith5107563@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>Run nothing less than 150 on my 06 and 10 hecklers with standard headset etc. Mostly ran 160's as it sat better there with more up front for me. I had a lightly longer shock in the second one which kept the geo similar to running 150.<br />
Also there is probably more than 10-15mm between long 150's and short 160's out there.<br />
I found the Rev's too light/flexi for good AM riding. My current one has 36's on it but will be swapping to 34's on the new bike as they seem to be a better balance (36 - super stiff, 34's stiff enough) </p>
<p>Good luck finding much choice at 1 1/8th in the new market, was one of the reasons for a new frame.

Wed, 26 Jun 2013 20:57:19 +0000timber5107154@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>Got an '05 with 5th element coil</p>
<p>Started with some 32 Van125RLC, smooth, but not stiff enough and wanted a bit more<br />
Had some Pikes on the front that were a good balance, but not quite right. Maybe just needed setting up better/different internals.<br />
Now got some old 36 Van R, nose heavy in the air, wheely-tastic uphill but a fantastic plough of a bike, goes well with the rear shock

Wed, 26 Jun 2013 20:33:08 +0000Weasel5107065@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>I had 150 Revelations on mine, I think if they had been dropped to say 140/130 could have been a better ride. Just didn't feel right, plus I didnt really use it that much so sold it.
